Unwanted ads

Why do I suddenly have annoying ads popping up constantly when I try to open and read postings? I use and ipad and have nt had this happen before. It causes me to repeatedly have to scroll down to return to the posting I was reading when the ad for bleach popped up!

I have been having that same problem with the bleach ad. And when I click on the X to get rid of it, it just opens it up!
I installed a free ad blocker on my IPad last week but it did not help. Very annoying.

Very, very annoying for me also. I also installed Ad Blocker thinking it would help. NOT. The only thing Ad Blocker did was to keep the advertisement from running. The "skeleton" of the ad still remains and I still have to "X" it to remove it as it locks up the back arrow on the header bar. AAAARRRRG! I have been running SPYBOT on my PC a couple of times a day to get rid of those lurking files. I don't want that junk on my PC.

The two browsers won't conflict with each other, and FF will have an option to import bookmarks, I think it might be able to do it from Chrome. The bookmarks problem would be more an "ongoing" one. If you save a bookmark in Chrome -after- the import then FF won't know about it. But who knows, there may be a way to keep them in sync via an add-on by now.

I just downloaded FF and am in the process of learning the ropes. Thank goodness I have all of my passwords in my address book. So far I have NOT seen any of the dreaded "forever popups". I think I am going to like this after going through the learning curve.
